The energy crisis presents a challenging concern for many international organizations in different areas around the world. Conventional construction methods allow thermal radiation to enter buildings in all its forms, which in turn consumes more energy. Structural buildings consume about 40% of global energy for daily consumption, especially consumption related to cooling or heating. Therefore, it was necessary to innovate new constructional systems and utilize new materials that could effectively improve the thermal energy storage capability of the structural system. Additive manufacturing is a digital construction method where the construction of complex geometries is enabled with less time and cost compared to traditional building methods. Phase change materials offer a suitable solution for overcoming the thermal and energy efficiency problems of the built structure. Therefore, this paper reviews the main characteristics of the PCMs and their combination with the 3D printing technology, highlighting the possible challenges, applications, and methods to overcome and improve. However, the available properties could fulfill the essential building construction requirements, but with inadequate effectiveness which increases the need for further investigation and improvements.

摘要

The energy crisis presents a challenging concern for many international organizations in different areas around the world. Conventional construction methods allow thermal radiation to enter buildings in all its forms, which in turn consumes more energy. Structural buildings consume about 40% of global energy for daily consumption, especially consumption related to cooling or heating. Therefore, it was necessary to innovate new constructional systems and utilize new materials that could effectively improve the thermal energy storage capability of the structural system. Additive manufacturing is a digital construction method where the construction of complex geometries is enabled with less time and cost compared to traditional building methods. Phase change materials offer a suitable solution for overcoming the thermal and energy efficiency problems of the built structure. Therefore, this paper reviews the main characteristics of the PCMs and their combination with the 3D printing technology, highlighting the possible challenges, applications, and methods to overcome and improve. However, the available properties could fulfill the essential building construction requirements, but with inadequate effectiveness which increases the need for further investigation and improvements.
